Mystery solved. LOL

Loading takes time. I mentioned how the offload procedure went down from a longshoreman that unloaded a lot of those car carriers.

And since something went obviously wrong, and the cause has yet to be determined, IMO, EVERYTHING is still on the table in determining that cause
.



and that is a very fair statement

Interesting pics, but one aspect, with the reported multiple fires, I suspect many of the fabric straps did not survive for the pics ( looks like neither did the tires), and some vehicle shifting took place AFTER the capsize in the resulting fires, so the after pics might be slightly misleading regarding the load shifting contribution here.


Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

Think of the change in load dynamics if all those vehicles, unstrapped, were to shift only 1 foot side to side. You have a lot of weight moving around. No way to ballast that active inertia quick enough.

I'd like to see this "cutting chain" in action. From a bit of a distance.
